Good morning.

It's the day after the national election.

Look for endless analyses of President-elect Barack Obama's victory over John McCain.

Advocacy groups of all stripes will be opining on how their favorites for the White House and Congress fared and what it might mean for legislative action in the planned lame-duck session of Congress later this month and in the new Congress starting in January.

Its been a lame-duck Congress for years. They certainly have not done the peoples business. I would like to see some real progress in the next four years. While I didn't vote for the winner, I wish him well and I hope he does well for the country, Maybe if he can cut out a lot of the pork and other wasteful spending the Congress will not have to raise taxes.

Beedle-dee-bah, beedle-dee-bah, beedle-dee-ree-pa-Bush..

[Chorus]
I'm nut, I'm a nut
My Presidential legacy don't amount to much, whoopa-whoopa-whoopa-whoopa
The head on my shoulders is sorta loose
And I ain't got the sense God gave a moose
Lord, I ain't crazy, but ...I'm the First Nut

Is is wetter under in the Potomac, if you're in it when it rains?
Is it shorter to Camp David, than it is by a plane?
Between myself and I, I wonder who's the dumber
Is it hotter down in Crawford, than it is in the summer?

[Chorus]

I drove my Cadillac to Wall Street to satisfy my lust
Wheelin', dealin', left ol' Wall Street on a Greyhound bus
I should'nt have set the markets on fire while I was there
But remember only forest fires prevent Bears

[Chorus]

The poverty war was almost over, until I began to fight
If it took a dime to go 'round the world
I'd cut taxes out of sight
I don't mind to take the Bankers out
If they don't mind to go Dutch
Makes me feel like 700 Billion Bailout Dollars
And I bet the Treasury ain't worth half that much

[Chorus]

Oh, crazy man! I'm a nut!
Oh, Lordy, Lordy Lordy, Lordy
I'm crazy, I'm the First Nut!


Hope congress use better judgement than '08-
and think about the voters not the lobist-
